changing the icon badge number when local notification fires

I need to increase the icon badge number everytime a local notification gets fired to inform the user that there is one more question he needs to answer. When the user answers a question of any sent notification the icon badge number is beeing reduced by 1. I only have one-time notifications, no recurring.

Since the app is not running when the notification fires I do not have any idea how to increase the icon badge number at that time. While there is no problem to decrease the number when the user answers a question - since this is done within the app.

Is there any possibility - maybe similar to registerForRemoteNotificationTypes for push notifications?

Many thanks!

The UILocalNotification class has a property applicationIconBadgeNumber of type NSInteger, which you can set, when scheduling the local notification.
